Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the State Finance Act. Provides that, within 10 business days after a State agency receives a vendor's bill or invoice for goods or services, the State agency must either (i) submit a voucher to the Comptroller for payment of the bill or invoice or (ii) return the bill or invoice to the vendor to correct specified errors or inaccuracies in the bill or invoice. Further provides that the Comptroller must pay vouchers in full in the order of their submission to the Comptroller, except (i) as otherwise required under State or federal law or by court order or (ii) in an emergency situation by unanimous written agreement of the Governor, Treasurer, and Comptroller. Requires the Comptroller to post a copy of each voucher on the Comptroller's website within 5 business days after its receipt. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Removes language providing that the Comptroller must pay vouchers in full in the order of their submission except (i) as otherwise required under law or (ii) in an emergency situation by unanimous agreement of the Governor, Treasurer, and Comptroller.

House Committee Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with substantially similar provisions, but makes the following changes: (1) provides that, within 25 (rather than 10) business days after a State agency receives a vendor's bill or invoice for goods or services, the State agency must either (i) submit a voucher to the Comptroller for payment of the bill or invoice or (ii) return the bill or invoice to the vendor to correct specified errors or inaccuracies in the bill or invoice; (2) provides that, within 5 business days after the Comptroller receives a voucher for payment of a vendor's bill or invoice for goods or services, the Comptroller must approve or deny the voucher (rather than post a copy of the voucher on the Comptroller's website); (3) provides that, within 2 days after the approval of a voucher, the Comptroller shall post the payment transaction or the accounts payable transaction in aggregate for vouchers payable from the General Funds on the Comptroller's website; and (4) makes other changes. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Provides that within 25 business days after a State agency receives a vendor's bill or invoice payable from the General Revenue Fund or as soon thereafter as practical (now, within 25 business days after a State agency receives a vendor's bill or invoice payable from the General Funds), the State agency must either (i) submit a voucher to the Comptroller for payment or (ii) return the bill or invoice to the vendor for corrections. Provides that within 2 business days after approval of a voucher, the Comptroller shall post the payment transaction or the accounts payable transaction in aggregate for vouchers payable from the General Revenue Fund (now, General Funds) on the Comptroller's website.
